Part of Town of Bedford fonds
Sub-series consists of signed by-laws, as well as copies of superceded by-laws. Council had the power to make, and from time to time alter, by-laws touching any matter within its authority as governed by the Towns Act. The Town Clerk was responsible to keep the original and certified copies of the by-laws. At some point, Bedford consolidated its by-laws, introducing a new numbering system and grouping them under the following classes: administrative (fees, licenses, etc.); legislative; administrative (general)l; protective services (police, fire, EMO); transportation/engineering and works; planning and development control; recreation/parks/heritage; and economic development commission. 103-1C

Part of Town of Bedford fonds
Sub-series consists of the minutes for the Bedford Town Council. By-law Number 9 and then By-laws Number 21101 and 21103 prescribed the Rules of Order of Council and required that minutes of all Council meetings (Regular, Special and Emergency) and Committee of the Whole meetings be recorded. Minutes were recorded by the Town Clerk or authorized assistants and entered in a book kept for that purpose and properly indexed. At any regular meeting, minutes of the preceding meeting were read and confirmed. Copies were to be distributed to Council and staff within 7-14 days. Copies were kept at the Town Office and were available for public examination. After minutes had been approved and signed by the Mayor, Deputy Mayor or Chairman and the Clerk, the signed copy was deemed the official minutes. By-law Number 21101 specifically outlines that minutes should include in summary form: 1) all motions moved and all motions moved and seconded by members; 2) a record of the vote on all motions moved and seconded by members; 3) all resolutions of the Council with names of movers and seconders; and 4) mention of all reports, petitions and other documents submitted to Council only by their respective titles or by a brief description of their content. Reports and submissions are not included with the Minutes. 103-1A
